Recover Documents from FreeBSD USB, previous installtion

Descripción de la oferta
I have an old FreeBSD installation that boots; I copied the entire disk image onto a USB drive and now need the document files extracted. The priority is .doc and .pdf documents that were kept inside a handful of specific directories (I’ll send their full paths once we start). The job is simple in scope but requires solid FreeBSD / UFS-2 recovery know-how. You will need to: • Mount or image-clone the USB safely (read-only first). • Locate the requested directories and pull every .doc and .pdf you can find. • Verify file integrity—open the recovered documents or run hash checks so I know they are intact. • Package the results in a tidy archive and hand it back to me, along with a brief log of what you did (commands, tools, and any issues encountered). Feel free to use whatever you’re most comfortable with—fsck_ufs, testdisk, ddrescue, even a FreeBSD live environment—as long as the recovered documents arrive uncorrupted. Let me know your estimated turnaround and any precautions you plan to take before we begin.
